Jordan Travel Visa Question

I have a quick question for you. My gf and I are leaving for Jordan shortly and we were wondering if there were any options to get a VISA that does not require registration at a police station. Our stay is for 20 days and ideally we were hoping to get a VISA that covers this period.

Is this at all possible? Or are we just better off getting it at the airport upon arrival and then registering it within the first two weeks at any police station?

I am planning to travel from Syria to Jordan and then finally to Egypt in November 2009. With respect to visas, I will be obtaining the Syrian visa prior to leaving Canada (since I understand that I cannot obtain one at the airport). I will be travelling overland to Jordan and Egypt, can I obtain these visas when I arrive at the border crossings? Finally, I am trying to find the visa photo requirements for the Jordan visa. Does anyone know whether they are strict with the dimensions of the face, neutral facial expression, dimensions of the photo?

I'm a bit confused by your answers Lesley, regarding the required documents for Iraqi passport holders. I have read various articles, one says a visa is required before travel, and a Iraqi passport holder must apply in Iraq. Your saying nothing is required?? So which is it? Also, what passport series is required for an Iraqi citizen, to enter Amman, Jordan?

I am a Philippine pasport holder. I am working here in Dubai but i am scheduled to go to Jordan for training for a week. How and where do i obtain visa? Will there be medical restrictions or additional requirements now because of H1N1 virus?

Soon I will be getting job offer in Aqaba. Do I need work visa, any time frame to get the work visa. I am Canadian citizen and looking for suitable single accomodation. Any suggestion where to find better place with economy rate single occupany long duration over one year. How much I need to pay one bd apt rent per month/year

Shawn - sorry it's taken me so long, I hadn't received a notification that you had posted. you will definitely need a work visa. the company that is offering you the job should be assisting you with this, it will take some time, so i suggest that you are in touch with the company to find out how they will assist you. Aqaba is very much a touristique area and rents are generally high in the city centre. You may find better rates out of the city but realtors will be able to help you with this, I have no experience in the rental market there.

NS - yes you need a visa. You can get a single entry visa on arrival at Amman airport. It is very, very easy........make sure you have US$ as they don't accept JD, take this with your valid passport to the Visa counter, they will stamp your passport and you are off!! Enjoy

My husband and I are planning to travel to Jordan in December. We are US passport holders currently living and working in Qatar. I read your response saying USD were required to pay for the visa at the airport. Will they accept Qatari Riyals or do we need to carry USD with us?

I'm an Egyptian, I did a cycling trip from Cairo and was heading to Amman, I arrived at Neuibaa port in Egypt. Booked a ferry to Jordan. The Jordanian officer refused to let me on the ferry and said i better for wait for the next one. I got on the next one but they kept my passport. I was interrogated by the police there and they decided to send me back to Egypt. I told them that i have asked the embassy and they said i don't need any visas or paperwork prior to traveling but i never got a response.

Hi, I am Filipina and holding a Philippine Passport. Currently working here in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. I would like to have 2 weeks vacation in Jordan. Can you give me an idea on how to apply for a visa in Jordan or will they stamp my passport upon arrival?

Madel - ok I think I understand that you will be working in Jordan and then you will want to go back to Dubai to visit your b/f. I am not sure if you need a visa for Dubai or not. You would be best to look at the immigration site of the UAE for exact and correct information.

To immigrate to Jordan is possible, however, I do not know the terms and conditions of this. You are best to contact the Embassy of Jordan or to search on the internet for all the information you need, such as time/forms/costs etc.

Karl, some of the electronics can be quite expensive in Jordan. Depending on where you are coming from you may like to get such things duty free or in other Aisa countries where you can get a good deal.

There are a number of mobile telephone companies operating in Jordan - I have used Zain and Orange and have good results with both of them.
